2 x EK1 for review

[stahlblue]

Here are a couple of Iron Crosses First Class for review.

One is marked "20" (Zimmerman) under the pin and the other is marked L/58 (Souval).

Thanks in advance!

First is the "20" marked example :

First is ok, the second one is post-war.

Thanks Ben, that's what I thought.

Is the small L/58 mark always post-war?

I don't know the small L/58 mark from wartime originals.
But the other give-away is the pin system, that is definitely post-war.

The 1st one is perfectly original. A nice CF Zimmermann
